Guide lessons from simple to complex, start simple than integrate content with more complex items pertaining to the topic later in the lesson.
Using a narrative example showing how to remove a program from a ‘Windows’ based computer students will learn the most by first learning how to identify where the ‘START’ icon is on a computer and what it is used for. If the learner knows the general way around a computer then the learner can be focused on learning the main goal which is how to remove a program from the computer. It is also important to note that if the learner receives a pre-lesson that shows how to navigate within the computer environment then during the main lesson the learner can focus on understanding specifically how to remove a program from the computer.
The use of the before you begin technique allows the teacher to give the learner some basics before jumping into the main lesson. An example of this would be to have a glossary at the beginning of the lesson giving a definition of what each component of the computer is that we will be learning.
Incorporate Words with graphics to ensure that the learner can see the written word and help associate it with the learning.
Worked examples ~
Step-by-step ~ Show visuals on what the teacher wants done.
1.Turn on the computerPersonalization
2.Navigate Mouse to the “START” icon and browse around
3.Once familiar with the computer locate the “control panel”
4.Once you navigate to ‘control panel’ look for the word “programs” and select that option
5.Lastly, click on un-install and choose the program you wish to remove and double-click it and follow instructions.
Summarize Segmentation Principles.
The segmentation principle allows for the learner to learn in a more detailed way by breaking the information into smaller pieces so that the learner can absorb the information better. Some people learn at a slower or different pace and just giving them the information makes it difficult for them to understand but when you break the information into cognitively manageable parts a difficult lesson can be absorbed and received with ease and the learner is less frustrated and overwhelmed by the material.
When learning new and complex information segmentation principles allows the components to be broken down into small pieces that will allows the learner to learn more complex information because there are manageable parts to help the learner understand without having an overload of information that only confuses and frustrates the learner.
